Math is also used in real life every day by scientists, engineers, computer professionals, architects. Did you know that a baker, yes, the guy/gal who makes bread in a bakery, needs to master math? Same goes for a professional chef to calculate portions, a pastry chef needs to calculate the amount of flour and other ingredients according to the size of the cake. Anyone who gets a pay cheque wants to verify if the amount is correct. We can go on and on.

Mostly I agree with you although you have to recognize math's significance. Without people who can do math, we would not have many of the things we take for granted. We wouldn't have cars, highways, or plane travel -- math is required to build and design such basic and complex things. Tall buildings? Architecture is heavily math based. Anything electricity based or phone and computer based also requires many math calculations to function.

Math is very functional. Most of us use it without even thinking about it. Ever go shopping? How much do you determine how much of a product to buy? You probably take into count how many people will be eating, as well as how much each person will have.

How do you know if bigger is better? Lots of products come in "value sizes", usually with a higher price tag, yet with a bigger volume and saving a few dollars or so. Simple math helps you determine whether or not you are truly are getting more for your money.

Are "combo meal deals" really a better option at resturants? Why buy a so called combo meal for $4.99 when you can head to McDonald's and get a sandwhich, fries, and drink for only $1 a piece?

Math is used all the time.The reasoning and logic behind it helps us avoid getting ripped off.

kykrilka [37]

Answer: census; sample

Explanation:

In order to conduct surveys there is need to have a population in which samples can be collected whether randomly, systematically or in a cluster manner.

When there is a need to conduct a survey questioning all members of a population it means one wants to involve in a survey.

In the human world, the government may wants to know how many people falls into a particular gender, race, age group and so on. When the government (researchers) do this it means that they wants to perform or they are performing what is known as CENSUS.

When a small group is subjected to research out of the general group then we say that SAMPLE is been drawn out.

Important: Note that the term ''population'' does not refer to human being alone it can be members of another 'thing' for instance animals like birds, goats and so on.
